Our Markets

Equities

Equities underpin most of our portfolios since, in the long run, they have been shown to offer excellent growth and protection against the ravages of inflation. Here at A1 Trade, we provide our clients with access to stock markets around the world including those in emerging economies. Our highly researched stock recommendations play a significant role in the consistent market-beating returns our clients enjoy year after year in bull or bear markets.

We have particularly strong experience with small and micro-cap stocks in innovative companies operating in alternative energy, bio-technology and information technology.

Fixed Income

As many of our clients are currently retired or approaching retirement, we have a close affinity with the fixed income or bond markets. A1 Trade prefers to avoid advanced economy sovereign bonds since, in recent years, yields have been in steady decline but we hold blue-chip corporate bonds in high esteem given their superior yields.
Clients with a minimal tolerance for risk or who wish to derive a steady income tend to gravitate towards fixed income assets.
